  • the biaxial texturing of the buffer layer 12 may be accomplished by IBAD.
  • IBAD is acronym that stands for ion beam assisted deposition, a technique that may be advantageously utilized to form a suitably textured buffer layer for subsequent formation of a superconductive layer having desirable crystallographic orientation for superior superconducting properties.
  • Magnesium oxide is a typical material of choice for the IBAD film, and may be on the order or 50 to 500 Angstroms, such as 50 to 200 Angstroms.

Typical thicknesses of the barrier film may be within a range of about 100–200 Angstroms.
  • the buffer layer may also include an epitaxially grown film, formed over the IBAD film. In this context, the epitaxially grown film is effective to increase the thickness of the IBAD film, and may desirably be made principally of the same material utilized for the IBAD layer such as MgO.
  • the buffer layer 12 may further include another buffer film, this one in particular implemented to reduce a mismatch in lattice constants between the superconductive layer and the underlying IBAD film and/or epitaxial film.
  • This buffer film may be formed of materials such as YSZ (yttria-stabilized zirconia) strontium ruthenate, lanthanum manganate, and generally, perovskite-structured ceramic materials.
  • the buffer film may be deposited by various physical vapor deposition techniques, and generally retains the biaxial texture of the underlying layer on which it is formed.
  • the superconductive layer 14 is generally in the form of a high-temperature superconductor (HTS) layer.
  • HTS materials are typically chosen from any of the high-temperature superconducting materials that exhibit superconducting properties above the temperature of liquid nitrogen, 77K. Such materials may include, for example, YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 ⁇ x , Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 10+y , Ti 2 Ba 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 10+y , and HgBa 2 Ca 2 Cu 3 O 8+y .
  • One class of materials includes REBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 ⁇ x , wherein RE is a rare earth element.
  • the superconductive layer 14 may be formed by any one of various techniques, including thick and thin film forming techniques.
  • a thin film physical vapor deposition technique such as pulsed laser deposition (PLD) can be used for a high deposition rates, or a chemical vapor deposition technique can be used for lower cost and larger surface area treatment.
  • PLD pulsed laser deposition
  • the superconductive layer has a thickness on the order of about 1 to about 30 microns, most typically about 2 to about 20 microns, such as about 2 to about 10 microns, in order to get desirable amperage ratings associated with the superconductive layer 14 .
  • the stabilizer layer 18 and capping layer 16 are generally implemented to provide a low resistance interface for electrical stabilization to aid in prevention of superconductor burnout in practical use. More particularly, stabilizer layer 18 aids in continued flow of electrical current along the superconductive conductor in cases where cooling fails or the critical current density is exceeded, and the superconductive layer becomes non-superconductive.
  • the capping layer 16 may be incorporated in the structure particularly for those embodiments where undesirable interaction between the superconductive layer 14 and the stabilizer layer 18 would otherwise take place. In such cases, the capping layer may be formed of a noble metal, such as gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. Silver is typically used due to its cost and general accessibility.
  • the capping layer 16 is typically made to be thick enough to prevent unwanted diffusion of the components from the stabilizer layer 18 into the superconductive layer 14 , but is made to be generally thin for cost reasons (raw material and processing costs). Typical thicknesses of the capping layer 16 range within about 0.1 to about 10.0 microns, such as 0.5 to about 5.0 microns. Various techniques may be used for deposition of the capping layer 16 , including physical vapor deposition, such as DC magnetron sputtering.
  • the stabilizer layer 18 is generally incorporated to overlie the superconductive layer 14 , and in particular, overlie and directly contact the capping layer 16 in the particular embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , although elimination of the capping layer would result in direct contact with the superconductive layer 14 according to an alternate embodiment.
  • the stabilizer layer 18 functions as a protection/shunt layer to enhance stability against harsh environmental conditions and superconductivity quench.
  • the layer is generally thermally and electrically conductive, and functions to bypass electrical current in case of failure of the superconductive layer. It may be formed by any one of various thick and thin film forming techniques, such as by laminating a pre-formed copper strip onto the superconductive tape, by using an intermediary bonding material such as a solder or flux. Other techniques have focused on physical vapor deposition, typically evaporation or sputtering, as well as wet chemical processing such as electroless plating, and electroplating.
  • the stabilizer layer 18 utilizes lower density materials, such as materials having a mass density less than about 8.00 g/cc, 7.00 g/cc, or even 6.00 g/cc. Indeed, certain embodiments have stabilizer layers that have a density not greater than about 4.00 g/cc or not greater than about 3.00 g/cc. According to a particular embodiment a comparatively low density conductive metal such as aluminum forms the major component (greater than 50% by weight) of the stabilizer layer 18 .
  • the stabilizer layer 18 may be aluminum or an aluminum metal alloy in which aluminum is present in at least about 80% by weight.
  • the use of aluminum not only reduces the density of the stabilizer layer 18 , but notably the global density of the superconductive article 100 .
  • Use of aluminum-based materials provides for stabilizer layers having desirably low mass densities, such as not greater than about 3.00 g/cc, such as within a range of about 2.00 to 3.00 g/cc.
  • the thickness of the stabilizer layer is not less than about 50 microns, oftentimes not less than about 100 microns.
  • aluminum-based stabilizers may be comparatively thicker than copper-based stabilizers having the same current carrying capability, since aluminum has a higher resistivity than copper.
  • the mass of the superconductor article may still be reduced due to a significant reduction in mass density.
  • a global density of the superconductive article may be less than about 7.00 g/cc. While other embodiments make use of global densities less than about 6.50 g/cc, 6.00 g/cc or even 5.00 g/cc.
  • a lower global density is achieved by reducing the density of each of the component layers, notably the substrate and stabilizer layers as previously detailed.
  • FIGS. 2 and 3 show typical applications for a superconductive tape or superconductive article having a high dimension ratio.
  • components such as industrial or commercial power components incorporating such conductors.
  • Certain classes of such components incorporate coils or windings of high dimension ratio superconductive conductors and are of particular significance.
  • rotating machines which broadly includes power generators and motors.
  • Such structures implement coiled high dimension ratio superconductive conductors that are rotated at high speeds.
  • Embodiments herein having low density substrates, low density stabilizers, and/or low global density find particular use in such rotating machines.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a power transformer having a central core 76 around which a primary winding 72 and a secondary winding 74 are provided.
  • FIG. 2 is schematic in nature, and the actual geometric configuration of the transformer may vary as is well understood in the art.
  • the transformer includes at least the basic primary and secondary windings.
  • the primary winding has a higher number of coils than the secondary winding 74 , representing a step-down transformer that reduces voltage of an incoming power signal.
  • provision of a fewer number of coils in the primary winding relative to the secondary winding provides a voltage step-up.
  • step-up transformers are utilized in power transmission substations to increase voltage to high voltages to reduce power losses over long distances
  • step-down transformers are integrated into distribution substations for later stage distribution of power to end users.

  • superconductor articles having desirable mass density characteristics are provided.
  • Such superconductor articles may provide improved mechanical integrity and robustness, particularly when used in highly dynamic environments such as rotating machines, at least partially due to the reduced mass density of the articles.
